For 350Kws just get the standard auto box rebuilt as standard they are good for around 200 to 250kws. You will need to run the box with a full manual valve body as you are running a PFC and they dont control the auto box (so it wouldn't change gears properly). You will then need to get a good high stall converter if you want to drag, but bear in mind you will be driving every day so dont get too greedy.

You can pick up the standard auto box for around $300 or so and you will need a new transmission crossmember, tailshaft, transmission cooler (dont skimp on this), pedal box, dash cluster, centre console, gear changer and linkages, and I am sure I have missed somthing else here, but thats all I can think of at the moment. You are doing it the cheaper way (opposed to changing auto to manual) so the cost wont be huge, I reckon you could get all the bits and peices for under $1000 and then the cost of the auto rebuild ontop of that (I have no Idea in the cost of that) and installation.

Best of luck and I am sure that once you have this done you will see faster 1/4 mile times.

I hope that helps.

      some days eh? The keyless entry and interior light on/off with the key will be controlled by the Body Control Module, but I'm not certain where that is or what it looks like (you might get lucky with a search to get a part#, which could be printed on it). I'd start at the A pillar/ Under dash/kick panel on the driver's side

      It might be hit and miss, but Nissan Genuine Parts and Pitworks are not the same thing, although both are available from Nissan Dealers with Nissan Part Numbers. Nissan Genuine Parts are the OEM stuff, Pitworks are their attempt to get people back from generic parts makers

      R32 Skyline Interior Door Light Issue

      By DominusUniversi · Posted

      I did end up getting it sorted, as GTSBoy said, there was a corroded connection and wire that needed to be replaced. I ended up taking out the light assembly, giving everything a good clean and re-soldered the old joints, and it came out good.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      Wow, thanks for your help guys 🙏. I really appreciate it. Thanks @Rezz, if i fail finding any new or used, full or partial set of original Stage carpets i will come back to you for sure 😉 Explenation is right there, i just missed it 🤦‍♂️. Thanks for pointing out. @soviet_merlin in the meantime, I received a reply from nengun, and i quote: "Thanks for your message and interest in Nengun. KG4900 is for the full set of floor mats, while KG4911 is only the Driver's Floor Mat. FR, RH means Front Right Hand Side. All the Full Set options are now discontinued. However, the Driver's Floor Mat options are still available according to the latest information available to us. We do not know what the differences would be, but if you only want the one mat, we can certainly see what we can find out for you". Interesting. It seems they still have some "new old stock" that Duncan mentioned 🤔. I wonder if they can provide any photos......And i also just realized that amayama have G4900 sets. I'm tempted too.
